High availability (HA) protection is provided for an executing virtual machine. At a checkpoint in the HA process, the active server suspends the virtual machine; and the active server copies dirty memory pages to a buffer. During the suspension of the virtual machine on the active host server, dirty memory pages are copied to a ring buffer. A copy process copies the dirty pages to a first location in the buffer. At a predetermined benchmark or threshold, a transmission process can begin. The transmission process can read data out of the buffer at a second location to send to the standby host. Both the copy and transmission processes can operate substantially simultaneously on the ring buffer. As such, the ring buffer cannot overflow because the transmission process continues to empty the ring buffer as the copy process continues. This arrangement allows for smaller buffers and prevents buffer overflows.

A playpen includes a plurality of support bars, a bed cushion, and a fixing device to fix the bed cushion on the support bars. Thus, the snapping plate of each of the holders of the fixing device is locked on the respective positioning seat, and the sleeve of each of the holders of the fixing device is locked on the respective support bar by the locking, so that each of the holders is positioned on the respective positioning seat and the respective support bar so as to support the bed cushion rigidly and stably, thereby preventing the bed cushion from becoming loosened or detached from the playpen.

The embodiment of the invention provides a multimedia file downloading method and a user terminal. By configuring N paths of downloading threads, the multi-thread multimedia file downloading is realized; and the downloading speed is increased while the problem that direct broadcast video frames are unstable when the network condition is unsatisfactory is solved. The scheme comprises obtaining the address of a multimedia file needing to be downloaded; determining that the N paths of downloading threads are used for downloading according to the size of the multimedia file needing to be downloaded, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 1; initiating the N paths of downloading threads and transmitting the number of the threads to a server to enable the server to divide the multimedia file needing to be downloaded into N segments, wherein the number of the threads indicates the initiation of the N paths of downloading threads; and downloading the multimedia file needing to be downloaded, which is divided into N segments, through the N paths of downloading threads.

In a sprocket comprising a sprocket hub, sprocket teeth and a cushion plate for contacting link plates of a transmission chain, the cushion plate is formed with concave portions at angular positions corresponding to the angular positions of the tips of the sprocket teeth, thereby avoiding contact, or reducing contact pressure, between the cushion plate and the middle parts of link plates of the chain.

A booster cushion for use in a vehicle, comprising a base (2) consisting of at least one inflatable member, upon which the child may sit, and a harness (6) adapted to fit over at least a front portion of the base to retain the base, said harness being provided with seat belt receiving members (14, 16) on either side of the harness (6) to be positioned, in use, on either side of the base (2) for receiving a lap belt portion of a vehicle seat belt to retain the base (2) upon the vehicle seat and such that the lap belt portion extends over the pelvic region of a child.

With respect to change of a bit rate at the time of transmitting encoded data TS, a system delay is fixed and the output size of data frame_bit [j] every predetermined data unit is successively calculated, thereby making it possible to continuously obtain data from the buffer 103 of a decoding side without breaks irrespective of change of the bit rate.

An ultrasonic sensor, in particular for a vehicle, including a housing, includes the following: a transducer element which is attached to the bottom of the housing for generating ultrasonic oscillations; a first damping element situated in the housing for damping oscillations of the bottom; and a cover for sealing the housing, the cover being provided with a second damping element and having continuous tapering of the cover thickness in the region of the second damping element.

A speaker apparatus is provide, which includes a casing, a speaker disposed in the casing, and a one-way inlet valve and a one-way outlet valve disposed in the casing for introducing and discharging air so as to balance pressure inside the casing, thereby enabling an air cushion generated by the speaker to timely dissipate without interfering with air cushions subsequently generated to thus be more capable of reproducing sound with high fidelity.

The invention relates to an adjusting mechanism of a pattern machine for connecting a middle presser, the mechanism comprises a supporting frame (50) and an adjusting rod (20) which penetrates the supporting frame (50), is contacted with a middle presser mechanism and can be adjusted up and down; the mechanism also comprises a nut (40) arranged on the lower part surface of the supporting frame (50) and a spring (50) one end of which is connected with the nut (40) and the other end is connected with the upper part surface of the supporting frame (50); a knob (10) is arranged at the top part of the adjusting rod (20); the adjusting rod (20) and the nut (40) are spirally connected. The adjusting mechanism has the beneficial effects of not only solving the cushion of the middle presser, but also being very convenient to adjust the height of the middle presser.

The invention is a thermoplastic film having a heat resistant coating. The film is particularly useful in the preparation of bags and associated packaging systems that are used for protecting and packaging articles. Typically, the heat resistant coating has a melting range that is greater than the melting temperature of the thermoplastic film and exceeds the temperature of the heat generated during foam formation. As such, packaging films and bags that are prepared in accordance with the invention help prevent foam-in-bag cushions from fusing together. Particularly useful heat resistant coatings include ink varnishes and resins that are solvent-based, water-based, or energy cured.

The invention refers to a method for creating a protecting atmosphere in a volume, including the steps of: providing a device, which is arranged to permit the supply of a gas and which includes at least a supply conduit (1) including a discharge end (7) and a porous body (3) provided at said discharge end (7), supplying said gas by means of said device through the porous body (3) in such a way that a controlled flow of said gas is formed and providing said porous body (3) in relation to said volume in such a way that the controlled gas flow forms a gas cushion, which substantially fills said volume, and that said gas cushion is arranged to prevent air from the environment from reaching said volume. The invention also refers to a device for creating a protecting atmosphere in a volume.

A shipping container for elongated articles includes (a) a rigid container housing, including a bottom wall and at least one upright side wall enclosing the bottom wall, and having an open upper end for receiving a plurality of elongated articles, (b) a cushioning member supported by at least a portion of the bottom wall, and positioned between the bottom wall and the open upper end, and (c) a plurality of receptacle members, each defining a hollow channel having a lower end and an upper end and being adapted for holding one of the elongated articles, and being positioned with the lower end in proximity to the cushioning member and the upper end in proximity to the open upper end of the rigid container housing, the plurality of receptacle members being stably supported by each other and the at least one side wall of the rigid container housing.

The present invention relates to a seat airbag for a vehicle in which a side cushion 100 is deployed to protrude forward from a seatback 10 and protects the side of a passenger 20, a front cushion 200 is deployed to protrude from the side cushion 100 to the front of the passenger 20 and protects the front of the passenger 20, an upper tether 300 and a lower tether 400 exhibiting strong restraint force are connected to the side cushion 100 and the front cushion 200. Thus, it is possible to effectively restrain the passenger's lateral behavior, forward behavior, and diagonal behavior, thereby further enhancing the passenger's protective effect.
